How we can configure multiple HTTP ports in Jboss standalone ?

[nurubhas]

Hi All,

I have a small requirement, I am looking to run & access my applications with different port in standalone environment. Is it possible ?

Let say :

I have configured Jboss EAP 6.4 in standalone mode & I have deployed two applications (one is for development & another one is testing )... & both apps should run with unique port.

how we can ?

Thanks

You can do this by creating the appropriate:

• socket-bindings
• connectors
• virtual-servers

Additionally, you have to update accordingly each application's jboss-web.xml file with the right virtual host name (the one created previously).

Hi Chavariotis,

Thanks for reply.. can you please give some examples.

I thought in EAP 6... standalone.xml file having standard sockets... how we can add multiple socket groups.

Thanks

First, update the standalone.xml and add socket-binding for a NEW port (for example 8282):

<socket-binding name="http2" port="8282"/>

Then, in the web subsystem add the new connector:

<connector name="http2" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http2" />

Then, you must add two discrete virtual-servers in web subsystem for each application (Dev.war & Test.war) as follows:

<virtual-server name="host1" enable-welcome-root="false" default-web-module="Dev.war">

  <alias name="dev.com"/>             

</virtual-server>

<virtual-server name="host2" enable-welcome-root="false" default-web-module="Test.war">

  <alias name="test.com"/>          

</virtual-server>

And finally, define virtual-servers in the respective connectors:

<connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http">

         <virtual-server name="host1"/>

</connector>

<connector name="http2" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http2">

         <virtual-server name="host2"/>

</connector>

As a last step, don't forget to add a jboss-web.xml in WEB-INF of each application:

- For Dev.war

<jboss-web>

        <virtual-host>host1</virtual-host>

</jboss-web>

- For Test.war

<jboss-web>

        <virtual-host>host2</virtual-host>

</jboss-web>

As a result of the above changes, you can access your application via the following URLs:

For Dev.war - http://dev.com:8080/Dev/index.jsp

For Test.war - http://test.com:8282/Test/index.jsp

Hi Panagiotis,

Seems to be excellent configuration, I will check & ping you back.

if i need any help.

Thanks

Hi Chavariotis,

As you said, I have configured the socket binding & virtual servers.. seems to be be everything ok, but I am not able to access the any application.

I am sharing the web subsystem.. can you please help me here.

What other things need to configure here.

You may need to add version.com and version2.com in /etc/hosts of system.

[nurubhas]

ok, I will try to add these in hosts.
